INTRODUCING

YEW POINT AT HODSON BAY

Yew Point is a 145-acre regenerative tourism retreat, currently under construction on a secluded peninsula in Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands, set to feature 36 architecturally elegant, sustainably built cabins. Nestled within a Special Area of Conservation, the development will offer a deeply immersive experience that blends untouched natural beauty with modern ecological design and zero-carbon practices. Guests will enjoy personalised hospitality, nature-inspired accommodation, and curated experiences such as forest bathing, foraging, and wellness activites. While we begin building our new regenerative tourism resort, access to the trails is now by guided walk only – join us at select times by registering in advance. This change is to ensure guest safety during construction

Access to Yew Point is for hotel residents only by guided walk.

The 100 Million Trees Project

The Hodson Bay Group is contributing to the 100 Million Trees Project by planting trees at Yew Point, Hodson Bay. This national initiative, led by the Mulcahy siblings, aims to plant 100 million native Irish trees across Ireland using the Miyawaki method, a dense planting technique that accelerates growth, enhances biodiversity, and creates rapid carbon sinks. In partnership with the 100 Million Tree Project, the team at Hodson Bay Group have planted 12,500 trees, in addition to a further 2,500 planted by the team over the past 3 years.

Eco Tourism Resort

Guests will enjoy luxurious accommodation, spa treatments, wholesome dining, and cultural explorations, all while being encouraged to reflect on sustainable practices. Our cabins are built with eco-conscious materials and resting on low-impact screw pile foundations, the cabins preserve the forest floor and maintain the integrity of the delicate ecosystem. This innovative method ensures stability while minimising disruption to the environment.

Access to the looped trail is exclusively available to guests who have pre-booked a guided walk either online or at the Hodson Bay Hotel Leisure Centre Reception.

As custodians of this unique and ecologically sensitive environment, we are committed to the careful preservation of its native woodland and wildlife. Ongoing conservation efforts and thoughtful maintenance help protect the biodiversity of this special area.

To safeguard the natural habitat and ensure a special experience for all, we manage the number of visitors on the trail at any given time. Please note that, as a lakeside environment, Yew Point is home to a variety of flying insects & seasonal insect repellent is recommended for your comfort.
